New in paperback, "David and Goliath" explores power dynamics and how we think about those with and without power. Gladwell is well-known for best-selling works like "Blink," "The Tipping Point" and "Outliers."

Thanks to the Arts & Business Council, Gladwell will discuss the research from his latest work in Harrison Auditorium and each of the lucky attendees will receive a copy of it. After his speech, Gladwell will be interviewed by Thomas Jefferson University’s President and CEO, Dr. Stephen Klasko.

Klasko will then participate in a panel discussing Gladwell's findings and concepts. He will moderate a panel including CEO of Here’s My Chance Dave Gloss, Mural Arts Founder Jane Golden and University City Science Center President and CEO Stephen S. Tang.
